yea i went from va to fl with no cruise or ac...



and you said in your first post you came to orlando..... sebring is only half way.... so really you never answered the question......



now i can answer it....



if you are in apexkw's car..... or if you have those jdm recaros from the spirit r and such....... don't ride in the car for long periods of time if you are over 6 feet...... especially if your tired... and the car doesn't have ac... and the gt spec exhaust is really really really loud...... um, i think thats about it...... oh wait, and your cd player doesn't play cd's

lol yeah so what? i have the rz recaro seats and they dont recline, my cd player was a broken stock one( new doesnt work either) no ac then ( ac still doesnt work even though i paid to get it fixed) and the car had the plain midpipe then. so whats your point?? the only thing i read in your post is and i qoute " BITCH BITCH BITCH" bawhahahahaha you know what harrison, i think you are still upset because michel and i launched at that light while you were sleeping and you woke up when the car was fish tailing all over the road.

Thanks for the replies fellerz!



The question was sparked more on the engine issue than the comforts of seats, cd-player, a/c, the weather etc. But so be it!



I am 5'10 and should be okay

thats because youre like 3 feet tall! lol



as for driving, i know its not an fd, but ive taken my turbo 2 from seattle to san francisco (about 14 hours) a few times. And one of those was literally to drive down, turn around and drive right back. So really... the longest continual trip in my fc was about 28 hours long. No problems with the car, and only slightly uncomfortable.

I wouldn't do it just because i don't like putting miles on my FC. And if i'm gonna take a long 12 hour drive i'd take something more comfortable with better economy.
